Hey, I got my little deed sitting right here: andistyr.github.io/wu-map/14821/#thekanickels-homeI'd love to build a dock close to my home but the whole coast has claimed by other people and there is no sense in building a dock far away just so i can drive there when i have a wagon to trasnport my boat to the coast. That's why i want to build a Canal with a small harbor in front of my deed, the harbor will need a little pond also to make turning easier. [ Harbor will have to be built underground - so no pond ] Canal Starting Point: andistyr.github.io/wu-map/14821/#3612_2341Canal Ending Point: andistyr.github.io/wu-map/14821/#3555_2327 Bridge 1: andistyr.github.io/wu-map/14821/#3601_2341Bridge 2: andistyr.github.io/wu-map/14821/#3572_2339The Canal would be about 70 tiles long, i'd like to build 2 bridges since there is no mayor Highway that i am crossing, only street is a 1 tile wide cobblestone street. So at the end of the Canal i would build a little pond ( ~5x5 ) and then a nice harbor with a slope leading up to my deed (pond/harbor underground). Also my neighbor Wandhydrant has asked me if we want to build a canal there, he could use my harbor too so we got 2 ppl using 1 canal. I asked Arbi to help me build the Bridges and maybe he's up for some diggin Thanks for checking it out

Just bear in mind what an undertaking digging a canal realy is. It's always way more work than you first think.

You need Engineer's approval first iirc.

Is the canal on your deed? How much of the canal is off deed? Does your canal cross onto other player's deeds? Do you have a timeline for the project? Who are your volunteers? Have you spoken to the neighbors? Do you have approval from all of your neighbors to build the canal?
Canals are a sensitive subject. People think they're great ideas and bite off more than they can chew. They give up and leave the project unfinished. Names are called. Players are banned. Staff cleans up the mess. So, I'm asking to see a specific plan and a survey of your local community that will be directly affected by the addition of a canal.

No the canal is not on my deed, i will probably make a deed where the canal ends which is in front of my deed, maybe i just expand mine. At this point the canal will be built underground anyway. All of the Canal is off deed until i deed over it which maybe happens in the future. No the Canal will not cross anyone's deed. No i don't have a timeline for the project since i don't want a obligation to finish it until a given date and i have got no idea how long it will take me to finish this. As mentioned above, Arbi (hopefully). As mentioned above, i talked about building a canal with Wandhydrant, yes. There are 5 deeds close by, Wandhydrant's deed, mine and 3 others. I have never seen anyone of the 3 deed owners in the 2 months that i am here and i have already reported one of them as abandoned deed, i will report the other 2 in the next few weeks. If i see anyone around i'll talk to them for sure. The local active community atm is Wandhydrant and myself.
Feel free to ask me anything else, i hope i can satisfy your conditions.

If you're building a boat tunnel and not an open air canal the the rules are much different.

Everything under 30 tiles is fine regarding not-underground canals. If you start digging in from the coast you should hit rock in less than 30.
